About Aethertide Whale

Aethertide Whale, Creature — whale, designed by Steven Belledin first released in Jan, 2017 in the set Aether Revolt Promos and was printed exactly in 4 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of A$ 0.05.

A control deck focused on utilizing energy counters would benefit from including Aethertide Whale, as it provides a strong flying threat while also generating a significant amount of energy upon entering the battlefield. The ability to return itself to the owner's hand by paying energy counters can be useful for protecting it from removal or triggering energy-related effects. While there may be other cards that offer similar benefits, Aethertide Whale's combination of flying, energy generation, and self-bounce make it a solid choice for decks looking to control the board and maintain a resource advantage.

Rules

is the energy symbol. It represents one energy counter.

02/09/17

Energy counters aren’t mana. They don’t go away as steps, phases, and turns end, and effects that add mana “of any type” to your mana pool can’t give you energy counters.

Keep careful track of how many energy counters each player has. You may do so by keeping a running count on paper, by using a die, or by any other clear and mutually agreeable method.
